such a brilliant series.its very film noir and closley based on 70s crime thrillers.it involves a catgirl called blue.who became human by drinking her masters blood,as he lay dying.she seeks to avenge him but in the meantime becomes a gun for hire.a job she does very well indeed.additionally she is a psychic.

Positives:
The art is fantastic. Backgrounds are detailed, gritty as they should be. Character designs are gorgeous.
The characters could power an OVA or series. The story has references that could be expanded into all sorts of directions.
Fight scene choreography is great.

Negatives:
The character animation was done either with rotoscoping or something very similar. The characters

Negatives:
The character animation was done either with rotoscoping or something very similar. The characters have very over-animated mouths - the lips never meet unless the character is silent.
Voice acting is amatuerish at best. Stiff, and obviously script-read, like a first run-through.

Summary:
These characters cry out for a remake, or a new series. So much potential. However, the technical faults almost outweigh the positives - still glad I watched it.

The voice acting was atrocious and the music was invasive. It is regrettable that the subtitled version is not available I imagine it to be much better than the dubed version.
The main character Cat was intriguing, I would enjoy seeing a continuation of this series if it were subtitled.

really really crappy 3d graphics. That's what this show reminds me of. Then it reminds me of really really bad dialogue. the writing might be ok, but it would be hard to tell through the really really bad acting. It's like taking clips from completely different conversations and stringing them together to make coherent sentences. It grates on the brain. Bad Blue Bad For You!

Voice work was horrible. Even parts of the script could have been written better. It sounded so forced and fake at times. Some of the sound effects were poor as well. It's like they got 2/3 of the way done with it and just decided to throw it all together and call it good. I really liked the concept and the storyline. The graphics were nice too.

Voice work was horrible. Even parts of the script could have been written better. It sounded so forced and fake at times. Some of the sound effects were poor as well. It's like they got 2/3 of the way done with it and just decided to throw it all together and call it good. I really liked the concept and the storyline. The graphics were nice too. I know they were trying to go with a retro look and feel, which they seemed to accomplish. A sequel or series would be great, but not if it's going to be the same with no improvements.

If you watch this as a technical demo, it becomes more enjoyable. Otherwise it's cheesy. The thing I wondered while watching it was whether they used an existing engine or not? It seems rather plug-and-play, so I assume it wasn't built in-house. I kinda want one of the henchmen's masks, though.

Primitive CGI, dubbing and story. If it's seen as someone's Second Life attempt to put together an animated series, this might just work. As it stands, I'd prefer watching something done live-action, or hand-drawn, once a more vibrant script were pulled together from the one that was used.
